Don't have access to anything but the newest BSD sources

and it most definitely has a lot of error checking if it can't get current
time from the OS. I realize there may be nothing in common between the
the BSD sources and the SCO codebase, but *I* was interested in how
BSD handled determing what time to use.

And if the SCO version really is broken, and if you need it to work
with OSR 5, surely someone could compile it, the includes look very
standard. The only living boxes I have are FreeBSD and Tandy Xenix
so I am not going to be of much help.
